Product Overview

Some scents invite you to pause

Grapefruit Ylang Ylang is light, warm, and quietly uplifting—where fresh citrus notes meet soft, floral depth in a blend that feels open, gentle, and easy to settle into. It’s a scent that brightens the moment, offering a sense of ease that feels both refreshing and comforting.

The Salts

Our bath salts are made with a mineral-rich blend of Himalayan Pink Salt, Mediterranean Sea Salt, and Noirmoutier French Grey Sea Salt, chosen for their texture, trace minerals, and the way they dissolve smoothly into warm water.

Salt baths have long been part of traditional bathing rituals, valued for the way they soften water, leave skin feeling smooth and comfortable, and enhance the deeply relaxing nature of a warm soak.

The Aroma Experience

In warm water, grapefruit opens first—clean, bright, and lightly sun-touched—followed by hints of sweet orange and lime. Ylang ylang drifts in beneath, adding a soft floral warmth that smooths the edges of the citrus without turning the blend sweet or heavy.

The aroma feels fresh with a gentle floral finish that lingers quietly in the steam and on the skin.

A Natural Way to Scent Salt

Rather than using carrier oils, we blend a trace of essential oil directly into the salt base and allow it to cure slowly over several weeks. This resting period allows the volatile aromatic compounds to mingle, mature, and bind to the salt crystals, creating a soft, integrated scent. As the salts melt into warm water, the aroma is gently released — leaving the water beautifully scented without any oily residue.

The Moment

For days that feel long or heavy, when you want your bath to feel lighter, warmer, and quietly restorative—an easy way to reset the tone of the evening and step out feeling refreshed in both body and mood.

How To Use

Simple Salt Bath Directions

Soaking in a warm bath is one of the simplest ways to relax and unwind. Adding mineral-rich bath salts enhances the experience by softening the water and allowing the aroma to unfold gently in the steam.

Start with 3–4 heaping tablespoons (about ¼ cup) of bath salts
Pour salts directly into the tub under warm running water
Swirl with your hand to help dissolve
Crystal sizes dissolve at different rates — this is normal
Tub sizes vary, so adjust the amount to your preference
When using scented salts, take a few slow breaths to enjoy the aromatherapy
Soak for 20–30 minutes, then rinse if desired

No Time for a Bath? Try a Salt Shower

Steam infusion

Place ¼–⅓ cup of salt into a muslin bag and hang it from the shower head. Warm water will release the aroma into the steam for a simple, refreshing shower experience.

Salt wash

Place ¼–⅓ cup of salt into a muslin bag and use it as a gentle saltwater washcloth with soap or as a final saltwater rinse.

If you are under a doctor’s care for any medical condition, consult your healthcare provider before taking salt baths.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are essential oils?

What Are Pure Essential Oils?

Have you ever enjoyed the scent of a fragrant flower or herb? The fragrance comes from potent, aromatic compounds called essential oils found in the flowers, stems, seeds, bark, roots, fruits, and other parts of plants. It often requires several pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil.

Essential oils not only give plants their unique scents but also help lure plant pollinators and protect plants from insects and other predators.

The chemical composition of essential oils may provide valuable psychological and physical aromatherapeutic benefits for some people.

It is important to note that to be a true essential oil, the oil must be isolated from the plant material by physical means only. Essential oils are NEVER extracted using solvents.

Although synthetic fragrances or "nature identical" oils are available at a much lower cost, only natural plant essential oils will provide any aromatherapeutic benefits.

If you are pregnant or under a doctor's care for any medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before using essential oils.

Pregnancy & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils during Pregnancy or for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you’re interested in using essential oils during pregnancy or with young children please do your own research and consult your doctor, midwife, or health care professional before use.

Are Chagrin Valley Ingredients & Products USDA Certified Organic?

Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve is a USDA Certified Organic Company

The most important consideration in any business is its customers. Today's world of misleading claims, false advertising, and simple deception, often leaves consumers trying to discover the truth about personal products and their ingredients.

We want our customers to know that we are committed to transparency in everything we do.
We want our customers to know that when we say "organic," we mean it.
We believe that in becoming a USDA Certified Organic company, our customers do not have to wonder if we really use certified organic ingredients or if our organic products are truly organic.
So we choose to be a certified organic company and abide by the strict standards required for organic certification.

Some of my favorite products are made with ingredients that just do not exist as certified organic. Why? At this time there are no standards created for ingredients specifically used in the personal care product industry. Organic certification of personal care products is based on the organic food standards set by the National Organic Program of the USDA.

But since we are a certified organic company, we are required to submit documentation that even our "non-organic ingredients" were produced without the use of toxic pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), sewage sludge, or irradiation.

What Do The Different Organic Symbols Mean?

We use two different organic symbols on our website.

Each symbol has a unique definition!

Organic Labels

The "certified organic" labeling has been developed by the USDA and refers to organic claims and labeling on food and personal care products in the United States. The USDA has very strict guidelines for the percentage of organic ingredients necessary to receive organic certification. Other countries have their own certification procedures, requirements, and standards. Labeling criteria and allowable ingredients differ from those in the US.

The USDA Organic Logo Label can be used on products that meet the standards of the first two tiers of the organic labeling system in which 95 - 100% of the ingredients are certified organic.

Most of our non-soap products fall into this category and display the USDA logo!

OEFFA is a USDA accredited organic certification agency The Certified Organic by OEFFA label is used in our company for two reasons . . .

Soaps and Shampoos: These products contain at least 8% of the sodium hydroxide due to the process of soapmaking. Our "organic" soap is about 87% to 92% organic, but the USDA standard states that a product must be made of 95-100% organic ingredients in order to bear the USDA Certified Organic seal shown above. We are also not allowed to use the words "organic soap" on the label.

Wildharvested Ingredients: When using any agricultural ingredient (any ingredient that has a biological origin) that is not certified organic the same labeling rules we use for soap apply.

The USDA rules for proper labeling state that the products may display the certifying agent's logo but not the USDA organic logo. Our USDA certifying agency is OEFFA (The Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association). Their logo is displayed on our "organic" soaps and shampoos.

Why do some soap companies use the word "organic" on their labels--even though it is against the rules? Click Here to Read More about Rules for Organic Labeling of Soap!

Unofficial Labels

We sometimes use an unofficial symbol for products made with "natural" ingredients that do not meet the criteria for either label above. You may see this type of symbol on products, like the Dead Sea Black Clay, Bamboo Charcoal, and Loofah Pumice Foot Soaps and our Mud & Clay and Rosemary Mint Charcoal Shampoo Bars.

Organic certification is based on organic farming and agriculture standards. As a result, the list of allowable non-agricultural ingredients (like clay, salt, mud etc) is based on raw materials used in agriculture or food production. Unfortunately, ingredients like some Clays, Pumice, Dead Sea Mud and Bamboo Charcoal are not used in farming or food production and thus do not appear on the list.

Although it may seem long, this is really a very brief description. For more detailed information please read, "What Do All Of The Organic Labels Mean?"
